 “The best way to predict the future is to invent it.”
Those powerful and famous words from tech and education pioneer Alan Kay were felt in full effect throughout Northeast Ohio on Wednesday, June 7 at a virtual “graduation” event marking the successful conclusion of Spring 2023 for both the Tech Internship Program and the Tech Side Hustle. The event also served as a celebration of entrepreneurship and innovation in practice. Two of our technology-focused, signature programs, the Tech Internship Program and the Tech Side Hustle provide ways for students to lend their technology skills to a growing venture or get support to launch their own startup, respectively. During the virtual event, students from both programs presented on their work over the past 6-12 months, and more importantly, on how they will apply what they learned from their experiences to exciting future endeavors.  EEC welcomed its Tech Side Hustle Cohort Two on February 10, 2023, joined by graduates of Cohort One and hosted by SmartShape Design in Cleveland. Students delivered short pitches on their venture ideas to an audience of mentors, fellow students, EEC Board members and Staff.
